Description

Residential Real Estate Brokerage & Management

Brief Excerpt from Industry Overview Chapter:

Companies in this industry act as agents or brokers in the buying and selling of residential real estate, in addition to leasing and managing residential properties. Major companies include HomeServices of America, Keller Williams, Realogy, and Re/Max (all based in the US), as well as Countrywide (UK), Deutsche Wohnen (Germany), FirstService (Canada), and Leopalace21 (Japan).

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Demand is driven by population growth and construction activity. The profitability of residential real estate brokerage and management companies depends on demand for properties and the volume of transactions they handle. Demand and volume are usually higher during periods of strong economic growth and can be negatively impacted by a recession or too much new construction. Large companies have only modest economies of scale and benefit mainly from better name recognition than smaller rivals. Small companies compete effectively by developing expertise in a single market or region. The US industry is fragmented: the 50 largest companies account for about 30% of revenue.

PRODUCTS, OPERATIONS & TECHNOLOGY

Major services include residential building and dwellings and offices for brokerage both account for about 40%; and management of residential property account for about 20%. Many companies provide multiple services; for example, companies that lease residential units to tenants might also manage the properties. Some residential real estate leasing companies operate as real estate investment trusts (REITs), which are covered in a separate industry profile.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
